The 2020 NAMM Global Report Provides Members with Industry Data to Guide Decision Making 2020 The 2020 NAMM Global Report Provides Members with Industry Data to Guide Decision Making This copy belongs to Markus Theinert A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT/CEO The current economic and health situation reveals just how interconnected we all are. From trade to travel, our world has been turned upside down, but even as we grapple with change, one thing is certain: We are in this together. Regardless of political rhetoric, global supply chains and digital integration are here to stay. Our industry requires global growth to maintain our bottom lines, and data-driven decision-making will define the next century. While growth is never a straight line and there will certainly be bumps in the road, the trends and forces at play provide hope for a brighter, stronger future—one in which membership can power both a feeling of collectivity and the means to succeed. We believe that music unites us and brings out the best in humanity. In pursuit of this noble goal, NAMM is committed to providing tools to support our members all around the world. Whether it’s by offering business-building educational resources or connecting buyers and sellers, or through data analysis such as this report, we seek to empower you to make broad, economic decisions, while growing your network and skills. For this reason, we bring you the 2020 NAMM Global Report, capturing a snapshot of 28 markets. With 132 countries and regions attending The NAMM Show and international firms composing 32 percent of our total membership base, we recognize and value the need for a global industry perspective. On behalf of the NAMM Board of Directors and staff, we appreciate your continued support and membership. NAMM remains committed to your success and to our industry. We sincerely hope you find the following information useful to your business.

NAMM does not verify any of the information and cannot and does not guarantee the accuracy of the data. The statistics NAMM receives are summaries; NAMM personnel do not see or manipulate any individual company information. Sources for each piece of data are listed at the beginning of each section and can be summarized as follows: U.S. domestic sales information and commentary is provided by The Music Trades magazine and import and export numbers are collected by the U.S. Census Bureau. Sales information and commentaries in the International section are provided by associations in each country. International economic, demographic and trade data are gathered from the CIA World Factbook, and the International music industry numbers are provided by The Music Trades magazine. UNDERSTANDING THE U.S. DATA How do you get sales data in an industry where most of the business is done by privately held companies and there are few reporting sources? The answer is you spend a lot of time digging. The data in these pages comes from a variety of sources—import and export data as compiled by the World Trade Organization, data gleaned from regular Music Trades retail surveys, filings from the industry’s 15 publicly held enterprises, association data, and informed estimates. The result is a “snapshot” of the volume of music products that move through the specialized channel of approximately 5,000 MI dealers. In the case of portable keyboards and karaoke products, however, mass merchant volumes are also included. In addition, sales of software products, specifically in the recording segment, include an estimate of the value of direct-to-consumer downloads that bypass the retail channel altogether. The numbers presented in these columns represent the estimated retail value of wholesale shipments. Retail value is determined by estimating an average retail mark-up and then applying it to the estimated wholesale value. Data in these pages are for the United States only, reflecting wholesale shipments to U.S.-based retailers. Using an average industry margin that varies from category to category, we estimate a retail sales value. This methodology, although not perfect, yields a consistent picture and allows for reasonable year-to- year comparisons. 4 This copy belongs to Markus Theinert Music USA United States Snapshot UNITED STATES SNAPSHOT Demographics Population in millions 332.6 Demographics Age Male Female 0–14 31.37 30.03 0–14 18.5% 15–64 107.52 107.66 65 & Over 25.01 31.04 15–64 65+ 64.6% Median Age 38.5 16.9% Population Growth 0.72% Economy GDP (PPP) $21.44 trillion Data Source: Demographics, Economy and Trade from CIA World Factbook, Music Industry from The Music Trades.

    University of Connecticut OpenCommons@UConn Doctoral Dissertations University of Connecticut Graduate School 7-10-2013 The eP rception of Movement through Musical Sound: Towards a Dynamical Systems Theory of Music Performance Alexander P. Demos University of Connecticut, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations Recommended Citation Demos, Alexander P., "The eP rception of Movement through Musical Sound: Towards a Dynamical Systems Theory of Music Performance" (2013). Doctoral Dissertations. 155. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/155 The Perception of Movement through Musical Sound: Towards a Dynamical Systems Theory of Music Performance Alexander Pantelis Demos, PhD University of Connecticut, 2013 Performers’ ancillary body movements, which are generally thought to support sound- production, appear to be related to musical structure and musical expression. Uncovering systematic relationships has, however, been difficult. Researchers have used the framework of embodied gestures, adapted from language research, to categorize and analyze performer’s movements. I have taken a different approach, conceptualizing ancillary movements as continuous actions in space-time within a dynamical systems framework. The framework predicts that the movements of the performer will be complexly, but systematically, related to the musical movement and that listeners will be able to hear both the metaphorical motion implied by the musical structure and the real movements of the performer. In three experiments, I adapted a set of statistical, time-series, and dynamical systems tools to music performance research to examine these predictions. In Experiment 1, I used force plate measurements to examine the postural sway of two trombonists playing two solo pieces with different musical structures in different expressive styles (normal, expressive, non-expressive).

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations.

  • Abington School District the Elementary Instrumental Team
    ABINGTON SCHOOL DISTRICT MUSIC DEPARTMENT www.abingtonarts.org 2018-2019 Education in music is most sovereign, because, more than anything else, rhythm and harmony find their way into the secret places of the soul. - Plato The Abington School District takes great pride in being able to offer string, brass, woodwind, and percussion instrument classes at the Elementary, Junior and Senior High Schools. It is the goal of the directors to produce outstanding orchestras and bands. It is also the belief of the directors that students who are involved in an outstanding band and/or orchestra program learn more and develop better self-discipline, responsibility, and knowledge, and take pride in their musical accomplishments. To produce an outstanding orchestra or band requires that each student accept certain responsibilities: 1. Responsible Behavior 2. Dependability 3. Musical Excellence 4. Dedication One of the most wasteful decisions any school could make would be to discard arts education as a “frill." The investment in a fine arts curriculum is repaid many times over by the quality of life it fosters in the community and by the growth it encourages in our most valuable asset: our children. - William E. LaMothe Chairman & CEO Kellogg Company Band Program Description In the fourth grade students receive band instruction one day per week for 45 minutes. While the students are out of their regular classroom no new concepts are to be introduced. In the fifth and sixth grades band students receive one small group instruction class per week for 45 minutes. In addition, fifth and sixth grade band students are combined into a band for 45 minutes per week.

  • A National Survey of College Level Percussion Teachers Regarding the Importance of Certain Characteristics of Percussion Materials in Beginning Instrumental Methods
    A National Survey of College Level Percussion Teachers Regarding the Importance of Certain Characteristics of Percussion Materials in Beginning Instrumental Methods Ronald George Horner Research Project submitted to the College of Creative Arts at West Virginia University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Performance Division of Music Paschal Yao Younge, Ed.D., Chair Molly A. Weaver, Ph.D., Research Advisor Mary T. Ferer, Ph.D. Ernest R. Goeres, Ph.D Dan C. Armstrong, M.M. Division of Music Morgantown, West Virginia 2005 ABSTRACT A National Survey of College Level Percussion Teachers Regarding the Importance of Certain Characteristics of Percussion Materials in Beginning Instrumental Methods Ronald George Horner Teaching percussion instruments in elementary school settings presents unique challenges. Development of reading skills, musicality, technique, and listening skills are often cited as concerns. Materials selected by educators can facilitate or encumber the process. This study examined the characteristics of beginning methods materials from the perspective of college level percussion teachers. 269 teachers participated in a researcher-developed survey as a representative cross- section of institutions of higher learning including community colleges, baccalaureate institutions, and institutions with graduate programs. Results were analyzed from frequency distributions and manually generated stem-and-leaf plots. The survey examined respondent background and teaching experience, institutional information, and professional information. Also, respondents rated the importance of certain characteristics of beginning percussion methods materials. Respondents displayed a clear preference for materials that included many instruments from the percussion family. They indicated that method books should promote musicality. Most cited development of student technique as an important factor.
